It does strike me as quite interesting that somehow we’ve managed to revive the time old tradition of talking utter bollocks with no relation to the original post…seems @Brett‘s bitter rants do serve a purpose after all!

How are they to know that’s what the hand is about? Could just be that he’s going hunger flat/thirsty & needs topping up from the car, in which case it’s the perfect time to attack. Not like Richie was going to take an illegal feed for him this year…

@wiscot, @Buck Rogers, @stooge let’s just get one thing clear. While Aru’s bike, kit & accessory choices are all correct ingredients for looking fantastic, none of that makes up for the horrific manner in which he actually drives the bike along.

To be fair, the actual course itself was only part of the issue with where the race was held.

When you consider the ethical concerns that surround the Qatari government, the fact that they appear to have paid way over the odds to host the event, and of course the riding conditions that resulted in things like this – https://twitter.com/Timva&hellip;

What I want to know is what event is that shot of Big Mig from? The logos on his chest seem to indicate something linked to the ’92 Barcelona Olympics, but given he’s in his trade team kit that’s unlikely, and I seem to remember that being the last one without the pros.
